IYIPO AYÉ: The Book
Imani has crystallized a world of richness into a book that serves as a door through which young people (and not so young people) can discover the aliveness, the heart, of very different cultures. She tells irresistible stories and gives us authentic songs of the Yoruba, Ga and Shona cultures (from Cuba, Ghana and Zimbabwe) to bring young people into a journey of imaginative engagement. Iyipo Ay teaches respect for all cultures and traditions even the many cultures living, often misunderstood, under the same school roof. Teachers, parents and grandparents, librarians and educators will love using this teaching tool, whose charm is so great that children will want to use this book over and over on their own.
